When I listen to music (high volume ) on my laptop from its speakers sometimes my computer freezes or become slow.
Is this a hardware problem, a bios problem, does this consumes to much energy and dont let enough energy for the other devices of laptop to work normal?
Does anybody have any ideas about how can i solve like this?
Sorry for my english
This is a guess:
Your laptop doesn't have a sound card, so when you turn on music at high volume, the processor has to drive the speakers.
Possible solutions:
- Buy and install a sound card.
- Get a new - better - laptop.

The guy above me is right, but it could also be your battery. If your computer is more than 6 months old, chances are your battery's power output has suffered a decline. This means that when you do some recourse intensive tasks, especially playing videos or music at high levels of volume, your computer will require more power than it is capable of producing. A processor needs an adequate amount of energy to function properly. So if you haven't enough power to feed your processor, some skipping, freezes and slowdowns will occur. Don't try to play anything that runs at a bitrate of 128kbps, and you should have no more slowdowns.
Hm, weird. I have never experienced this problem. I do have, however, a sound card, although it's a crappy, integrated one by Intel. My laptop is 2 and a half years old, though, and the battery is completely dead. Like, if I leave my laptop unplugged for about 30 seconds, it'll die.
my laptop model is Satellite P200D-12O PSPBQE-02900SG3
Specs:
AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-62 (2100 Mhz)

i suppose its not a sound card problem
it may be a charge problem
do i need to buy external speakers to solve the problem?
i have to install a new version of bios for my laptop?
I'd go with the battery personally cause your sound card isn't that bad.you may want to check and make sure its not knocked loose tho.happened to my older laptop.
